Harry Buxton Forman

    Henry Buxton Forman était un bibliographe et un antiquaire de l'époque victorienne, dont la réputation littéraire repose sur ses bibliographies de poètes importants. Cependant, son nom est inextricablement lié à la révélation d'une vaste conspiration visant à écouler de grandes quantités de premières éditions contrefaites. Ces révélations ont jeté une ombre sur ses travaux antérieurs et ont compliqué sa place dans l'histoire littéraire. L'œuvre de Forman sert ainsi d'avertissement sur la fragilité du marché littéraire et l'importance de la provenance.

    The Poetical Works of John Keats
    • This book is the complete poetical works of John Keats. John Keats (1795-1821) was an English poet. He was one of the most celebrated second-generation Romantic poets together with Percy Bysshe Shelley and Lord Byron, despite the fact that he only produced poetry for four years. This fantastic collection would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf, and constitutes a must-have for serious lovers of poetry. Contents include: "The Life of Keats", "Endymion: A Poetic Romance", "Lamia", "Isabella", "The Eve of St. Agnes", "Hyperion", "Specimen of an Induction to a Poem", "Caldore: A Fragment", "To Hope", "Imitation of Spenser", "Ode to a Nightingale", "Ode to a Grecian Urn", "Ode to Psyche", "Odes on Melancholy", etc. Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
